Now I am a monthly donor!
Thanks for sharing.
Over the past few months, our former payment provider Nexi S.p.A. (“Nexi”) requested access to private data, which we understood to be specifically the usernames and passwords of our supporters. We have refused this request. All our attempts to clarify Nexi’s request, or to understand how their need for such information was necessary and legal, were met with what we consider to be vague and unsatisfactory explanations relating to a general need for risk analysis.
Y tho. What in fuck does a payment provider have to do with asking for this?
How come there’s never a name attached to these things.
As in a name reporting the issue, or a name from the payment provider?
It’s on the FSFE homepage if you need confirmation of the story: https://fsfe.org/news/2026/news-20260316-01.en.html
I mean the name of the people who are originating these ideas. We should be putting names like who are the executives.
They get away with this stuff because they’re faceless organizations or higher ups beyond consequences.
I just see so many systems in place that are there to allow these things to trample us and nobody in this generation challenges. Like the opposition to authority in this generation just seems like they’re apart of the authority. They’re also playing they’re role.
Fuck payment processors use crypto
Considering every crypto exchange nowadays has KYC, it’s not that much better.
Actually, there’s still stuff like localmonero and bisq which were non-KYC when I last checked, but your point still stands.
Lmao crypto failed at it’s purpose before you even knew about it. Shit is centralized and monitored, it’s the exact same as any other currency.
Crypto is scam.
